Popis: Spin-polarised electric currents have been studied extensively for use in spintronics, while their spin-neutral counterparts have been largely ignored. Here Shao et al show that such spin-neutral currents can be controlled by the Neel vector orientation of an antiferromagnet and detected using an antiferromagnetic tunnel junction.
